Introduction to the Leadership Themes from the Gospels
We may need to rediscover what Christ calls us to when we lead and manage His Church.
Is your church dedication to Christ's Sovereignty and Lordship?
Are you in leadership to serve or be served?
Is your church's direction from Christ our Lord or from what is happening now?

The world is a mess because most people do not know that God accepts us by His sacrifice for our sins! Because of His work, we are deeply loved and complete in Him, and we do not need to have acceptance by any other person or means to be fulfilled (Rom. 5:1; Col. 1:21-22; 2:13-15; Heb.13: 15-16; James 1:4; 1 John 4:9-11)!

Discipleship
Drawing Near to the Heart of God
My proposal is basic on how to grow closer to Christ and deeper in our walk with Him, and in drawing near to the heart of God!

It is for me, and it is for you, regardless of personal experience, spiritual growth experience, developmental level, disabilities, or age.
